Checked my CIC account, nothing. 15 minutes later I get an email from CIC that there is a message in my account. I could hear my heart pounding when I logged in. POE Invitation and SP granted. 3 weeks 4 hrs and 5 seconds exactly, is what it took.

So now what? Apart from booking flights I need to find a place to live, pack and get myself organised.

I'm still in shock.

Those of you who have done this what did you bring with you?

I'm on the same boat with you!
When are you leaving for Canada? And when does your class start?

I'm still trying to pack my things and I have less than a month now x(

I don't need to send in passport. I'm from a TRV exempt country and applied via London UK.

My classes start sep 3 but I've registered for orientation the week before. I need to clear my apartment now, pack what I'm bringing and fingers crossed be out by mid august.

Did I hear anyone scream "don't forget to book your flights"?

Oh my God, me too! (as in classes starting date, 2 week orientation etc)

Which university are you going to?

And yeah, I'm also going there in mid August, and I've booked my flight. You better do it ASAP! :)
